Will anyone out and about in Liverpool today who knows my daughter Polly please get in touch if they see her? Missing since 7am and vulnerable

Lovely to meet our future @The_GA president Denise Freeman @geography_DAF in the YHA kitchen - both happy after good day of fieldwork - and glad you tweeted the picture of Kermit rather than us in our aprons!
Great to meet @PhillipsSpace in the kitchen of the Glasgow YHA, with @thisis_holly, both cooking rice for our students, after a good day of fieldwork. A true confluence of geographers.
